Greeny Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 It won't boot and I've spent hours trying to fix it.
CAC Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Real answer, probably the power supply. Mine went and when you hit the power button it did absolutely nothing. So I changed it out and it fired right up.

It was in a "repair loop" but now it won't get past the logo screen. Tried booting from a USB stick and that wouldn't work either. Can't even get into safe mode.

Greeny Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 It came with Windows 10 installed so not that old. I'll give that link a shot but I've already tried similar things.
Naraku4656 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 it wouldn't be able to get to the boot screen if it was completely bricked. if it's a laptop it might be harder to deal with
Greeny Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 It won't get to the boot screen anymore. It wouldn't, then it would, and now it won't again.
